  • RE: Baseline for monitoring sql server

    It's a fairly thick set of data. I've outlined it all in the second chapter of my Query Tuning book.

  • RE: Indentiy Indexes as the source of a performance problem

    Yep, if I suspect a code or structure problem with a query, it's off to the execution plan.

    Now, you can query the cache directly. I've posted a few examples over...

  • RE: execution plans

    You can query the cache, but the output is XML, not text. The DMO you need is sys.dm_exec_query_plan. It needs a plan handle. You can get those from sys.dm_exec_query_stats, sys.dm_exec_procedure_stats...

    Question for those of you who have organised SQLSaturdays

  • RE: sql server: virtual or physical

    Stuff like ESX Replication[/url] and DoubleTake make VMs pretty hot. There are whole lot of other management aspects to VM that make them great. My personal take is, unless you...

  • RE: sql server: virtual or physical

    Virtualization of the server adds a layer of processing and is therefore slower, no matter what.

    That said, there are a bunch of reasons to use virtual machines in different environments...

  • RE: Capacity planning

    You need to gather metrics on the 2000 server and then pass those on. The code and structure are not going to change by migrating from 2000 to 2005. That...

  • RE: SOPA and Censorship

    As far as the apathy goes, most people are apathetic about almost all their basic rights. I'm pretty sure a healthy majority of people would be willing to sacrifice freedom...

  • RE: SOPA and Censorship

    Jeez Jeff. Next time mark it URGENT or NEED HELP NOW. Then I'd be sure to ignore it.

    By the way, as far as posting goes, I didn't set it up...

  • RE: Table locking during large insert

    It partly depends on your table structure. What's the cluster key? If you're looking at a heap, or if the cluster key distributes the data across the whole database, then...

  • RE: How to backup only new data?

    Yes, sorry, SQL Data Compare, you're right.

    I'd cheat.

    Get a copy of Red Gate SQL Compare and just capture the data that exists in one database, but not the other. Very easy that...
